Mattifying that's not powder?

Powder just does not look good on my skin (and doesn't seem to stay put anyway)

I love the dewy look but need something to take the shine off the slides of my nose - has anyone tried anything that isn't powder?

I saw a thing called 4K unshine which sounds awesome but is £44 (including £10 delivery!) which seems a gamble without a recommendation.

I'm ok to fork out for the holy grail though 😄

I love blotting sheets! I find them at 50 for $1. They come in handy come summer for that unwanted "glow" as well.

No idea if it's good as I haven't opened it yet but today I bought Revolution's hydra matte primer

A good primer. I like The Ordinary silicone primer and Benefit Porefessional primer.

I use a matte setting spray by NYX, it's not bad for the price.

Clarins has some good matte-inducing stuff.

Currently drying my hair so no link but google mattifying balm!

The Paula's Choice shine stopper is very good. Nothing gets past that.

I swear by Avon Magix for this.
